Planning on fitting RideTech level1 - need some advice and pics
Hi members.
I am planning on ordering a RideTech level 1 kit for my 70 C10 and wanted to see if any members have pictures of there trucks with the level 1 kit fitted. I want to see how low it can go with this kit. Any other suggestions also welcome as I have not yet made the purchase. Thanks Z |

Should not be to hard to do. The video should give you plenty to work from.
I'd say ridtech offers some sort of instructions as well as plenty of tech support.

I think he is looking for a picture of a truck with the bolt on stage 1 kit at ride height and air out on a truck before he buys and is unhappy with the results.

All I am after is looking for pictures of trucks with this kit fitted so I can see how low it goes and if I need to order additional items to make it low like I want I would need to do it all first time. It will be too costly for me to ship items more than once. I will ask RideTech for some images of C10s with the kit as well. |

Understand.
I am sure Ridetech can provide photos and all the assistance you need before the purchase. Send them a message.

Re: Planning on fitting RideTech level1 - need some advice and pics
hey Big Al......on your rear bag set up, are you using plates mounted under & over your bags? or are your bags mounted right onto the trailing arm and frame?
also, when your aired out, does your axle rest on the bump stops inside the c notch? does your differential touch the underside of your bed floor? thanks
